New kid on the block

Hey, just thought id introduce myself, Im Peter, 21 from Newcastle upon Tyne.
Just picked up my black gold 182 last thursday, used to own a 1.2 authentique. i absolutely love it. Im hoping to tinker with it with a few subtle additions.
I think its a FF, but has lost its front splitter before i bought it, not totally sure so if anyone can confirm that would be great.
Anyways heres a few pics below (hopefully, sorry if they dont show correctly, first timer and all that).

Youve got a couple of choices really... You could buy a cup splitter from Renault for about £130 iirc... Or A carbon fibre one from K-tec for about £100 iirc.

 

[jmpeter182]

thanks, ill have a look on K-tec now.

nice, ur centre caps look a differnt shade to the alloys?

 

[jmpeter182]

hmmm, never noticed that before, the alloy had a refurb before i picked it up, so looks like a poor colour match.

yeah, i was looking at that the other day.
i was gonna try and join around the wideopen area, but theres no stops near.
I drive that route most weekends, its brilliant, but i turn off to go up to Harbottle instead of Elsdon, so itl be nice driving a few new roads.

Aye theres some decent roads not to far out of town, I think the route might change for that meet though as we always get lost. :rasp: Plus just driving up the A1 will be pretty cack so i think were going to go along to whitley bay then up the costal route to alnwick.

 

[Baby D]

i like it.. mines pretty much spelt out "hunky" ill swap reg's!!!! :rasp:


you enjoying the car though?

 

[jmpeter182]

aye, sounds like a plan.
The car is brill, everytime i drive, ive got a smile from ear to ear.
Although due to a neighbour using an angle grinder to cut some paving slabs, it is unbelievably mucky with all the dust, a shadow of its former self.

 

[Baby D]

Awwwwhhh... thats why you shoulda got it in blue

 

[knoxy101]
